These are real grown-up dessert cups. Deliciously rich, totally guilt free. Theres nothing quite like the delicious mix of dark chocolate with fresh sweet cherries. Throw in some caramel superfood powder with gooey tahini, and you have one melt-in-the-mouth dessert. Long day at work? You can whip these up in under 20 minutes.
This Clean Cookie Fudge recipe is too amazing for words. Its creamy, rich and smooth like real dairy fudge, but without all the nasties like sugar, butter and cream. Delightfully filling too – chickpeas are full of fiber so you only need a few squares to kick that craving all night!
This frosty red cooler is a glass of pure refreshment. With a squeeze of fresh citrus and plenty of antioxidant-infused raspberries, this will have you feeling on top of the world, no matter how crazy your day.
Whip up this quick protein smoothie for a quick hit of 30g of protein. Great for building lean muscle and keeping you satiated until your next meal.
Everybody gets a sweet tooth now and again. I’ll admit that mine rears its head more than most, which is why I like to find healthy ways of satisfying it, so that I don’t pile on the pounds. We all know that sugar makes us fat, so portion control and relying on natural sugars is a must when it comes to the sweet stuff. These little guys are a perfect balance of good fats and carbs – awesome post workout with a shake to help your body synthesise the protein, but also a fantastic little dessert for when you need a quick sweet hit.
Brussels sprouts aren’t amongst the most well-loved of veggies, but definitely worth a place in your fridge. Not only are they are a good source of protein, iron and potassium (which offer a range of health benefits), but are also high in fibre, keeping you fuller for longer. The lemon in this recipe takes them up a notch from your usual sprouts – adding zing to their earthy flavour.
Not only is this creamy mushroom soup low in calories, it’s full of protein to keep you satisfied for longer. Use any in-season mushrooms for that deliciously earthy flavour.
Sometimes we all just need a quick lunch. I would love to profess that I slave over a hot stove creating all manner of wonderful new and healthy treats for you, but then you would need to do the same to recreate them. Sounds like hard work right? So lets keep it simple…add 3 ingredients to a blender, serve in a bowl. Voila! Healthy in a snap.
Swap your usual fries for the super sweet potato version. A source of vitamin C, vitamin D and iron, sweet potatoes are also a good source of magnesium which is the relaxation and anti-stress mineral.
